Prairie Dog Hunt Using 37gr ZAN Projectile Slugs and FX Impact PT2
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- This is part 2 of a pest control session using the FX Impact Mk2 and Slugs made by ZAN Projectiles. The slugs are 37 gr and I have the Impact tuned to shoot them at 1036FPS and they are accurate! Here are some specs on the gear and rifle-
FX Impact MK2 Power Plenum edition with 700mm Superior Heavy liner in .25 cal. I have installed the Huma transfer port, FX Slug Power Kit, Donny FL Ronin suppressor, and Saber Tactical accessories.
The scope is an Athlon Ares ETR and I'm using a Side Shot scope cam mount with a GoPro Hero 7 Black and Eagle Vision lens.
The rangefinder binoculars are made by SIG and they are the KILO 3000 BDX addition

Here is another link to a video showing how I tuned my Impact with exact measurements - • FX Impact MK2 High Pow...
Any other questions just ask! Thanks for watching!
Nailed a starling the other day @ 118 yards. My personal best to date with the zan slugs. They seem quite accurate but kinda jam up some when magazine fed. But yes, the impact and sound were impressive. Great shooting, enjoying the video. Thanks
The only good starling , is a dead one.
@William Czupryn- Nice! That’s a small target at a long distance! Good shooting bud 👍🏻 You can hear the performance when you hit something! Thanks for leaving a comment 🙏🏻
Great scope-cam footage!
Love your roadside hide. Appreciate the slow motion follow up of the shots and as always the audio smack of a well placed shot. it renforces the instant feed back confirmation you had applied all your marksmanship skills perfectly. Due to Covid air travel constent rule changes this is the second year I haven't traveled to Colorado for praire dog hunting. So Thanks for putting up your videos.
@Hinano Bubbie- Thanks for the comment! I hope you can make it out next season! COVID has definitely put a hampering on the travel and hunting. I am happy to shoot out of the truck! It’s a stable platform and I can keep all my gear next to me! Thanks for the support bud!
Excellent buddy. The Zans are truly tier one. I've just installed the 720 kit (after modification mind) then upped my reg to 150bar, darn she sounds good. Been testing a heavy slug aswell & she hit the 97ftlb mark, not bad for a 25cal MK2 😁
@Pedes Read- Thats got some power now! Very nice 👍🏻 what slug do you have it tuned for?
@@dangolwinner still use the ZAN 33s, on PW MIN 974fps with valve at about 8.94mm, to get 97, PW3, valve out to 10.64mm, then use heavy 49.5 slug
Great way to start my day! Really enjoyed the video. Was thinking about you 10 days back when we were visiting the wife's sister up by the beautiful Sandia Mountains.
@Richard Ward- Thanks for watching bud! I’m about 20 mins from the Sandia Mountains, very nice there! What part of the country are you from?
@@dangolwinner Texas, about 45 mins. north of Houston.
Great shooting
@All about HPA Airgun reviews- thanks man 🙏🏻
"One more time" like it gets old! :) Great stuff as always!
@Airgun Outdoors- I never get tired of chasing them! Thanks for leaving a comment bud!
@@dangolwinner Perhaps one day we can get together and send a few more packing.. :)
Nice shoots Dan. Zan Projectiles does the job só well. They hit very hard
@NUMIZA Airguns- Thanks man! They have been a great slug for pest control. I will be checking out the long distance accuracy in a few weeks with some groups at 200 yards. Thanks for commenting 🙏🏻
The sound is music to my ears! A sound that can’t be duplicated when trying to explain it! It’s louder than the report of the rifle. The squirrels or in this case prairie dogs are more apt to run from the sound of their buddies losing their minds than anything!! Keep’em coming before YT does something stupid. Woke this 👆they even took away the correct salute emoji, 🤣🤣🤣 Thanks Dan!
@Ryan Branco- It is a great sound! I agree that the pest animals are confused as to what is happening to their buddies! Thanks for the support man, I really appreciate it 🙏🏻
Awesome man !!!!
@Doug Dishler- Thanks Doug, it was a nice day to be out there shooting. During the early part of the day the mosquitoes got me pretty good, but I finally got out the bug spray and it wasn’t bad after that! Thanks for leaving a comment 🙏🏻
Did u ever try permethrin I hope I didn’t kill the spelling lol works great live in Pennsylvania mosquitoes are horrible this time yeah along with tics since I started using it not one tick hardly fit bit by skeeters.. and it good for 6 washing’s. Is pricey but worth it
Nice shooting man! Those Zan slugs sure are working for ya! BTW nice 130yd left hand shot!!
@Billy Hellbender Outdoors- Thanks bud! Those left handed shots are not so easy 😂 I’m liking those ZAN slugs, they offer a variety of weights and that makes them pretty versatile for me.
Brilliant video brother, man them Zan slugs are truly performing outstandingly well. 👌
@ImpactX- Thanks bud! I really like those slugs, they perform great! Thanks for commenting 🙏🏻
Wow man awesome video bro awesome shooting great pest control 👍 I do not know how you can shoot left and right handed awesome.... I need to try out these Zan slugs thanks for sharing bsafe buddy
@Chris Figueroa- 😂 the hardest part about shooting weak handed is controlling your eyes to focus. I always keep both eye open while shooting and sometimes it takes a few seconds longer to find my target! Thanks for commenting man 🙏🏻
Nice vid mate 🙏🏼
@Camobignuts- Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment bud! I appreciate the support 🙏🏻
I just ordered some zans. , 35 gr. I will try ‘em out on my new fx maverick .
@Roger Armendariz- Let me know how they work as far as accuracy! What liner are you using?
@@dangolwinner I going to use the factory superior x , if it don’t work then I will change liner , but I want to try it first.Most shots 30 to 80 yds.at night using a Thor thermal.
Hi dan loving your videos mate , Just ordered some some zan slug in 34 g hoping to try
Out next week keep impressing mate love the slow mo shots 💪💪👍🏆👌🏻🇬🇧
@Simon Coher- Thanks bud! You will have to let me know how they work for you! Good luck and thanks for commenting 🙏🏻
Another great video awesome shooting love your mobile sniper hide
@James Kiser- 😂! Thanks man! Got to take advantage of the long bed! I have airbags in the bed and I fill them up half way and the suspension doesn’t move at all 👍🏻 nice and stable. Thanks for commenting man 🙏🏻
Why would you ever want to look at different reticle?? Athlon absolutely crushed this!!! I have the same on my Midas Tac. It's just perfect.
Nice shooting!!
@KevinWood44- I agree, I love the reticles from Athlon. I have 3 of the Ares ETRs and one of the Argos btr gen 2. Thanks for commenting man!
Great video as always, and everything explained well. Keep it up.
@Steve Hawes- Thanks for the support man! I appreciate the feedback 🙏🏻
Thanks for the video, I picked up some 26gr and 33gr Zans to try in my impact. I was hoping the 26's would run on a same tune as 25kings just by upping the macro wheel. Unfortunately being very short, they tumble in the mag causing feed issues.
@stillair1- The shorter slugs are definitely prone to rotating in the mag, I have that issue in .30 cal.
Man I enjoy your videos, just so well done Daniel. That 25 is really impressive for sure. I shot some .218 Javelin 26gr out of the G2 yesterday and they seemed to land left of pt of aim but grouped fairly well at 50yds. Next up are the Zan 25.5gr (.22) and I am hoping they do a little better. Farm permission is calling for pigeon dinner so I want to see how they do on the sky rats. I had put Hajimoto's improved air stripper in it and did suggested shroud vents. Noticed obviously tighter groups right away with pellets and it was good in stock form. Dirty air does have an effect on pellets. Still not all the way settled in on the single stage trigger but may play with it (per Haji's tutorial and some parts) Love that huge bolt handle on it to. Smacked a starling with a head shot at 55yards right after re-sighting (JSB Monster).
@Bret Lawson- I really appreciate your support! I do put effort into creating the videos, and I enjoy the process. It is alway great to hear the positive feedback! I like the looks of the G2, It is packing some great features now. You will have to keep me posted on the sky rats! It’s funny how we can be picky about triggers but In the end we can still manage to make them work! Or learn to live with it! Thanks for leaving the comment, I truly appreciate it 🙏🏻
Thanks for another entertaining video
@11B Varmint Sniper- Thanks for the support man! I appreciate the comment 🙏🏻
Where is your first reg pressure set at on this one I am wanting to buy a slug barrel tention kit for my Impact M3 but don't know which cal. A 22 or 25 have both in pellet barrels which do you prefer for shooting prairie dogs in excess of 100 yes my .22 shooting 25gr fx pellets seem to have a slight edge in accuracy out to 100yds but don't have the brute knockdown power of the .25 shooting USB 33.95s shooting groundhogs at my place headshots with the .25 is always dead on impact but the .22 not always like the .25 but like I said the accuracy is a hair better in .22 but that's just shooting pellets anything you could coach me on as far as the slug barrels would be appreciated I noticed you seem to like the .25 better and don't look like you have any problems putting the smaller prairie dogs down also want to squirrel hunt with slugs too thank you and keep up the good videos and thanks for sharing your knowledge with us
Very entertaining keep up the good work
@duffmanmark- Thanks for the support man! I hope to get enough pest control footage to last the winter!
Good shooting !
@Impact 701- Thanks for the support man! I appreciate the comment! 🙏🏻
Very nice 👌 👍
Zans work well.
You try any Javelins yet.
@Stedy One- Yes I have, in 23gr, 26gr, and 30gr all .217. They work great and are a soft slug that have fast expansion. I have not been able to get them for a while though, I only got 200 of each. If you get the chance, try them! They perform great 👍🏻 thanks for commenting man 🙏🏻
Reg pressure? Thanks
👍👍👍👍
Thanks bud! 🙏🏻
Hi Dan, another great demonstration of Slug power, Can I ask you if you don’t mind, 1: does the pin probe make a difference from using the high flow pellet probe and can it be used for pellets without switching back ( is your pin probe fixed or adjustable)
2: I haven’t tried the zan slugs yet , do you think the 218 diameter in .22 would be ok with the 700mm superior liner , I am using jsb knockouts in 216 with good results but I would like something softer for better expansion.
@Peter TLR- I feel that I get better performance when using the pin probe over the high flow (modified factory version) probe. Yes it will make a difference in seating depth in the barrel when going from pellets to slugs. The pellets are not so fussy though and it’s more critical to have the pin probe tuned for the slugs base. The probe I use is adjustable and I just set it so the projectile clears the transfer port. I have some 23 gr 218 slugs I just got a few days ago, I can keep my tune the same and shoot them and let you know how they perform! I have shot .218 before and they seem to perform good. I can get back to you on that one though in a day or 2. Thanks for commenting 🙏🏻
@@dangolwinner Thank you Dan for your informative response.
very accurate bro
@sniper runduk46- Thanks for watching! I appreciate the comment man! Those slugs are a great option for pest control and long range performance, very accurate 👍🏻
@@dangolwinner ok brother
Great shooting good clean kill shots 👌👍👍
@hi-tone Michael- Thanks bud! I appreciate the comment 🙏🏻
@@dangolwinner your welcome it great to see a good RUclips channel on pest control keeping up the good work looking forward to your next video bud 👍✅👍
Hello,
I have fx impact mkII .22
Reg 150b
Valve adjuster 3line
Hammer spring max 18.60mm
30grain 1000fps
Liner superior standard,
With chrony reading I have spread 54 fps
What’s the problem please, thanks
Drop your reg pressure to 140-145 bar and keep everything else the same and see how that does 👍🏻 let me know!
@@dangolwinner my goal was 1000fps , h&n30gr i did that you said the velocity dropped to 983 but ammmmazing regulation with 145 reg so, i set valve spring from8.5mm to 10mm and hammer gap from 18.5 to 15.5 mm and I got1000fps with amazing regulation thanks 🙏🏻 alot man I really appreciate it
